@zombiepepega DHCP does not mean dynamic ips in the way your thinking. DHCP is just a form of protocols that your device uses to set the ip. Otherwise you would have to manually enter a ip and subnet to connect to anything.
Especially if you do have a dynamic ip. Because DHCP automatically reconfigures your network settings for that device every time it notices a change.
I'm all static. Even my local networks. But they all still use DHCP Incase I change local ips through my switch.

man, this really hit people in the shit box huh.
1 year to discover there had been a breach in the first place of information, more work should've been put in to look into this in the first place and looking into what staff has access to sensitive information such as IP's. which i understand people are pretty upset by especially those with static ip's.
this whole thing is more humiliating to plutonium's reputation than being caught practicing skat by the masses and i think they need to take a good look in the mirror, wipe the shit off their faces and vet their staff to properly keep their own and other shit secure. i'm not personally outraged since i have a dynamic ip and was probably reset since then but, yeah. do better lads.

CoinFlipper Leaks like these are how people get added to mass spam lists, it isn't just this breach to worry about it's the linking of multiple data breaches together to form a profile of you as an individual.
Granted, being in a leak sucks and having the information at that time leaked may not seem like a big deal.
But, imagine malicious actors using multiple pieces of each data breach to build up a portfolio as you and then take your identity?
It's unlikely, but not impossible.

imsarahh Just call up your ISP and tell them you need a new IP. Think of some bullshit reason to let them change it and BOOM, you're done and set!
-
this is my last post. Cya guys its been fun
-
xFD okay sry
-
Most ISP's should be able to use your IP being leaked as a valid reason to change it.
-
It is sad to hear it took a whole year to notice this breach, but however it is good to hear it was a breach of a user and not the system itself with the breach only containing semi important PII but nothing that could ruin an individual. Hopefully this is the last and only data breach we hear of come from Plutonium.
-
imsarahh Have at it sarah, the staff team is just relaying the info im sure he doesnt wanna be the one to listen to everyones problems
-
Mr. Android Everyone's like "Unacceptable!" "You should be ashamed!"
Meanwhile, I don't even know what this means.

ChimpVEVO Private information was stolen and is being/was sold online after a Plutonium staffs iCloud was breached by a random person.

For everyone that thinks deleteing your account and using a different client would be the best thing to do, It isn't. The best thing to do now is: Change your password, Make a new email to keep away from spam, call your isp and ask for a ip change. The Pluto team found the attack, and that's what matters, they will learn from this mistake and are putting new security measures in place, lots of other clients would not even try to add new security measures let alone let you know what happened. It took alot for them to even notify the community but it was the right thing to do.

glad i could at least alert you guys - take it under your wing and learn from it!
